The MxHub offers a matrix function.
Here, triggering cameras can be displayed in a window defined in DeskClient.
Example:
Camera 1 triggers → Matrix window in DeskClient shows this camera 1.
Camera 2 now triggers → Matrix window in DeskClient now shows camera 2.
etc.
Here it can be realized that always the camera that triggers is displayed.
If you create multiple Matrix windows in DeskClient, the first triggering camera moves one window further.
Example:
Camera 1 triggers → Matrix window 1 shows camera 1
Camera 2 triggers next → Camera 2 is displayed in Matrix Window 1, Camera 1 is moved to
Matrix Window 2.
etc.
